Sense
It does not have to make sense,
If it arouses feelings and senses,
If you are sane about it,
Then it is sensational
It does not have to be exceptional ,
Except when it has your acceptance and appreciation.
You dont have to sense riches about it,
If it comes from the depths of your being,
And reaches the depths of another being,
Then it is wealthy.

Quits
You dont quit until you quit life,
You dont call it quits,
You dont call it at all
You just drop the line dead
Noone knows the deadline,
So be your own lifeline

Musical Ngoma
Music is not only to amuse
Not saying to entertain is to abuse
Music is also to educate
Music is also to meditate
At the same time stimulate
While you accelerate
Take you to a point of being delicate
Not to say one would be mute
However, helps your perspective to remote
Channel your inner, in a fashionable manner
When that note hit, its melody
One cannot help but drum to the beat
Then beat more hurried your heart
Emotions within expressed on the out
Music brings messages about
Music brings lessons about
Music as a matter of fact, is more than Art
One cannot attribute it to one part
That just tears music apart
Not saying to entertain is to abuse
But saying limited only to entertain is to abuse

Untitled
A picture can say a thousand words
Words can paint a vivid picture
I try to see and paint a bigger picture
But become blinded by meaningless words
How can something so meaningful become so senseless
How can something so senseless become so meaningful
We fail to understand each other yet we talk to each other
We fail to see each other yet we look at each other
We fail to feel each other yet we touch each other
We lose ourselves trying to find ourselves
Could it be true or not ?
The more things change, the more they stay the same
One man's pain is another's pleasure ?
One man's discomfort is another's comfort ?
Could this be the balance of nature ?

Gulfing imagination
Engulfed in imagination
Vision of health, wealth
I did not see myself foolish enough not to imagine me wise
Picturing the journey in my mind
Physically enduring the requisists of reality
Still in my mentality
I see myself humble
I see myself respectful and returned
I see myself loyal and returned
I see myself happy
I see myself loving and returned
I see myself spiritual
Having heard once a saying ( not sure the author nor the utterer),
"Vision without action is dreaming but vision with action equalls success."
Both these realms don't heed to my command , by the looks of the sum
Sometimes even lose control of my emotions, by them
Deeds should and will be done with the freewill and power vested in me by the creator.

She knows me (plural)
He knows me (plural)
They know me
Everyone is conversing
Everyone is eating
Sipping
Everyone is laughing
We share the same blood

We share similar sentiments

I feel strange
Feeling awkward in this picture
When I'm alone I feel better
Less strange
More free
Maybe
It's growth
It's loath
All I know it's not loathe

Imizamo yokukhanya
Lemizamo kudala ndiyi zama-zama
Ndihamba ndibetheka
Ndagoduka ndiqhwalela
Abantu becing'ba ndiyabhampa kanti ndizikhot'amanxeba
Bambi besithi ndizenza kleva kanti ngamava
Abanye bendibona ndiphakamile(ukuphakama) kanti ndikhulile(kukukhula)
Ndayintswela kanti ndiyintswela kuqonda
Imibuzo endizibuza yona ibasinda nabadala
Sikwempa-kwempa iintloko sade saphuma iimpandla
Ndithi ndihamba-hamba ndizibone ndiqubeka ndisiwa , ndizibone ndivuka ndiqond'ba mandisoske ndiqhubeleke
Ndithi ndiyazama kanti ndiyabhatyaza
Ndithi ndiyakha kanti ndiyadiliza
Andiboni kwasisombululo ngathi ndisebumnyameni
Andiboni qu noMdali andithethi ngamaThongo
Nangona nje ndisazi ukuba bakhona, ndiziva ndinesizungu
Ndizohlala ndiyilindele inguqu
Ndihlale ndifudumale luThando neNkolo
Mandibengumnyamezeli ndinga nikezeli
Umvuzo ukhona kwabanomonde
Ekugqibeleni ndiyazi ndizophumelela kuzokhanya

Fire-calmed soul
Have a time of your life, this is your timeline)
Theres nothing new under the sun, said Emperor Haile Selasi's ancestor, The wise king Solomon the star of King David
In this kingdom of galaxies, life is not a rehearsal
For some mistakes theres no reversal
And pain is universal like the weather
(You have to be robin' hood, coz you have been robbed of your princehood of your dynasty),
(Thats just dynamics of life, dynamite comes in small packages)
Be at peace that you gonna get a piece of devine dividends
Coz the world is far from innocence
As above as below
Let thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven
The creator judges us for sin
We the people judge each other for crimes against each other
(Rise in peace in Sudan)
Be at peace like a monk coz he finds his from deep inside,
Connecting to spirituality tranquility beyond infinity
Do you think you can find sanity in insanity of confusion
Love is the law, unconditionally
Love thy neighbour even though they dont love you back
And dont get cheeky, turn the other chick
And just salam alaykum , halleluJah to Allah
Charity begins at home , even if they treat you like a charity case, on your case
Im not even gonna mention friends,
(Coz theres many different kinds,
Theres natural,  theres unnatural
An enemy of my enemy is my friend and a friend of my friend is my friend)

...We rebirth, also through baptismal
So when you go through baptismal of fire ,
Just more fire like a Rastafari
And let the inferno el nino deep inside erupt like a flood of lava
And scorch to ashes the demons in the depths of your deepest darkness
And rise like a Caterpillar of  a phoenix-dragon breathing fire
Dont take externalities to heart, (exhale)
But usher it like through the red sea, dont let it burn like Usher
Gold is converted through heat
And pressure makes diamonds
Dont reach for the body ,reach for the soul as that is the true being
As we are not in battle with flesh and blood but with evil , spiritually lurking from the shadows, in search to devour and destroy
Keep calm and steel-still in silence
Seek wisdom

Afternoons
Afternoon heat
Afternoon breeze
Inbetween
Grass and trees
Sounds of birds
Sights of rivers
Feeling of ease
The kind that frees
For a moment
Everything as still freeze
Sweet like the harness of bees
No companies
Whilst between crowds
No louds
Yet full of sounds
Music
Off the streams
While inside theres screams
Evoking dreams
And nightmares
Outside theres peace
Mind on remenece
Away from everything in my presence
Under the summer heat
Hit by the summer breeze
Inbetween
Grass and trees

Sanctioned edge of sanity
Im no edge, nor edgy
But im sharp like a razor edge
And i am on the edge
With my hedge on,
Im no short-circurt surge
Might feel under siege, might seem like a purge
Wants all the courage,
Needs to discourage this purgatory merge
And a new dawn emerge
Rawbust/Robust
Like im busting rhymes
Although im no "busta with no rhymes"
Cause i burst hymes
Bursting ghost-writter bubbles,
Like the shakespeare bubble,
You can call me " ghost-writter buster"
Sanity in a sanctioned sanctuary

Secrets
Secrets
Are they worth our memory Storage
Is it still a secret if you share
With another
Being secretive
Is it being dishonest
Why keep secrets
Is it fear
Is it love
Is it protection
Or the true reason
Is even hidden from the keeper
What I know is
Secrets can destroy
Secrets can build
What I don't know is
Do we want secrets
Do we need secrets
Why do we limit honesty

The sun sets a rise
The sun rises, the sun sets
Inbetween its rays is distance measured by time
At times we experience life's seasons at the sametime
Sometimes we experience being the living dead
Alive outside , dead inside
Challenging the grim reaper to a battle of life with death being the prize
Hindsight buzzing with afterlife never seen
Whilst eyesight is blind to the beauty of life
All this global warming does not do me warmth inside still
The addrenelin of the moonlight send chills down my spine
Pees pease of the same pod in a poor ***
Wanting piece of the pie when i dont even understand the pie-chart
Pyramids, Pisces, pirates, pastors, paradox
From dawn to dusk to dawn
New age of the new era is an old saying,
Because there nothing new under the sun,
Even an eclypse
Days to weeks,  to months, to years, to decades, to centuries, to millennium
The sun sets, the sun rises

Steam Train
I steam, i blow, i toot
Chuckling, huffing, puffing
Fire inside me
Hot as burning coal
Over parallel rails, i ride
Through dark tunnels, i ride
Under ramping bridges, i ride
Chuckling
I steam, i blow, i toot
Carrying generations inside me
Trusted with delivery
Fulfiling my natural responsibility
Knowing
Failure brings devastating outcome
Satisfact of service is the only reward
Time is not a factor than the destination
Fire burning inside me
Heat supply like burning coal
Energy is not a matter
Heat is what i thrive by
Delivering masses to the masses is my nature
Operations fulfiled by the nature of the steam train

Having certain realisations
Leading to certain visualisations
Caught inbetween
It takes patience
It takes action
I wonder
Are we all heading the same destination
Life, i imagine
Is like sailing in the ocean
Not knowing your location
But with maps and compases, are certain to persue your direction
So be certain to encounter waves, tides, sea-storms
Its all part of the mission
The lesson
Its not what its costing
Its what you gaining
Hasitation , patience
Action , timing
Logic, feeling, emotion
Listening, observing
What is this chef life serving
Sea- food or see- food
Crab in the bucket effect
How this captain sailing
Forward or roundabout
The ship does not only anchor on arrival
The sheep do not only graze on pastures
Is it about the answers or is it about the message
Hoping for safe passage
While we overload baggage
Which creates *******
Did we prepare the voyage of emergency
Precaution is one of lifes currency
For forward i see like a profecy
Greener pastures i seek
My realisations leading to certain visualisations
Nature of creation does not yield to my desires
Instead mother-nature commands me to her demands
Compelling me to forfeit my freewill, while she does as she pleases
Unpleasant for father-time , whom waits for no man
In an attempt to keep up with the times, taxing nature with these man-made creations.
While i was trying to make a contribution back to creation for my existance
Inowadays to make a living i have to earn
Due to the high cost of living , i cannot afford to leisure
Some items i cannot even afford to pay the cost of their attention
I can do anything here on earth with freewill wherest nature is powerful than me
Somethings require patience to be achieved wherest i have limited time here on earth
From birth to death i have to abide by laws of nature
The creator knows my weaknesses and strengths and fears and wishes
Therefore i will play by the rules for my purpose

Yet to be found
One thing I have found
Is that I am lost
In this world
A world I was born
A world I have bore
I feel lost in this world
A world that has me built
A world I have helped build
I don't even realise the path I am on
Is this the final destination
Is there another destination
Am I at crossroads
Am ai just feeling out of this world
I have found comfort in loneliness
I have found silence peace
A world that has gave me family
A world that has gave me acquientances
I cannot distinguish between love and lust
Within the crowd, I feel bound
Within the crowd, I feel unfound
Crystally clearly confused in sanity
Is there anyone realising I am lost
Is there anyone looking for me
It is not even a matter of, will I be found
It is a matter of, should I be found
Alone
In this world I have found
I am lost in this world
Even if I put myself in the lost and found (box)
I don't think I will be found
Here
I am yet to be found

Renaissance of love (in me)
I find it funny that this moment i'm thinking about love
How its been a minute since i've known love
How i would give a minute of my time
To feel a moment of love
How i will give my whole lifetime to be love
It is amusing to reminisce that i gave a minute of remiss to love when love was around
Now in this present reminiscence of the past,
I'm hoping for a future remitted with love

Wild-wild worst state
Its bewildering to know we have become slaves of our own desires
We commanded everything when we came to this world
Now money makes our world go 'round,
Not even Micheal Jackson can rock this world now
Yet we taught ourselves what we needed,
We taught ourselves that citrus-orange is desirable than citrus-lemon,
That honey is better-healthier than sugar
We used to communicate with our bodies to unlock knowledge (wisdom)
Like when we having ice to cooldown then we have "brain-freeze" then we know we have had too much,
And that too much of everything is not good
We have become a band of banditts
We used to be on par with the bars of standards we set ourselves on benches of  the bar ,
Now we are behind bars unconstitutionally and thats not gold bars not to us,
Our consciousness of conscience is barred with hard steelness
Our situation has lost stability,
And now are intensively critically undersiege
We blame our demons, forgetting we have the power over them
Maybe its because of these demonstrations of non-action
Unable to heal from wounds of our past bruises,
Because of the food we eat,
And thats food for thought

Despotic emancipation
From a place of disposition i sit and deposit thoughts of emancipation into action from intuition to reposition  my dispensation depo
Depriving lack cutting it not even abit of slack
Sometimes fishing yourself out of desolation can be a life line
And sometimes not judging a fish by its ability to climb a tree is not selling yourself short of sushi
Sometimes money does grow on trees like wattle into charcoal, marijuana to hemp, mushrooms, seaweed to medicine
Just because we have yet to find a cure to the ailment does not mean it does not exist
Sometimes the pain is the outcome of the indication not the source of hurt
Eureka hallelujah, hallelujah eureka

Horizon of imagination
Beyond the horizon,
I dont know what lies there
Only imagination
Imagining what lies beyond the margines
Take myself out off boundering marginal lines
Be it truth or lies
Be it reality or fiction
Until i sleep beyond this earth
I will continue sliping off through bounderies
As i see the horizon endless,
So i imagine myself limitless beyond the endless horizon

HelpER
You are the help in the Emergency Room
Not only Early Recovery
But Emotional Recovery
Are just your personal caring services
Medication does the job yes, but
Meditation from the conversations during the injections does the
Healing
Most of us know the kind host of your room, but least of us host themselves in kindness making known your deeds of
Caring
At times not known the enemy, threatning every immune system
You stand firm in the forefront fighting, protecting, providing,
Loving
We overlook your ability of importance because you don't spotlight and plea your case, you remain constant in any case, we only put you first in the case of emergency

FLY
FLY
Sometimes i wish i could fly
Seeing the way everyday we dying like flies
Illusioned by freedom, chained by lies
What such has become of our lives
Trying to cover death with
smiles
Trying to cover death with
monies
Living like in land of milk and honies
Whilst the inside dies, we have immunity to cries
This is killing us softly inside, we can't trust outside
Life has become a jig-saw game, sides versus
Besides paying the price of sins and deeds
Indeed it is our lives trying for good deeds
However all we are acting and witnessing are
misdeeds
Sometimes i levitate
Trying to gravitate
For balance i strive to create
Contemplate, if i were to be summoned by the courts of the afterlife to be a witness,
Would i be ashamed or proud to testify
That is why
Sometimes i wish i could fly
With me, lift everyone's morals high and not fear to die

Pain and pleasure
There is pleasurable pain
There is painful pleasure
It is almost plausable,
How we can completely forget about pain when in perfect leisure
It is completely plausable,
How we can forget about pleasure when fully numbed by pain
In pain we yearn for pleasure
While in leisure we are pain with desire
Pain is painful
While we are ignorant in leisure
We ought to appreciate pain,
As it reminds us to appreciate pleasurable times
While we wish leisure can be bought with dimes
In pain theres cries
In pleasure theres laughs
Those are all expressions of emotions
It is almost funny,
Our emotional impressions against pain
It is completely funny,
Our mental impressions towards pleasure
Action leads to experience.
Like the act of thought before committing to achieve that action which will lead you to gaining experience.
Experience in all spheres of life.
Conscience being emotional intelligence
Conscious being mental intelligence
Physical.
Metaphorically, those parallel against the acts actually done,
Meaning those experiences you do not commit to committing.
In the process of deciding there are alternatives, which are disregarded, in favour of acts actually committed.
You cannot sacrifice what does not exist,
As you recall that existance is not only
Physical.
Choice being illusional or not,
It is one of the pillars in the decision to committing an act,
That will gain you experience in life.
Happy New Year,
To all,
God bless and protect

Pentry
Penning words on paper is liberation ( for me)
To be simply put
You talk about deforestation
I say we were using it (wood) for cooking anyway before we moved to electricity
So I can write plak-cards about global warming
Writing is liberating to me in a way that I see my thoughts becoming reality
It may seem old-school fashioned with this technology around
The way ink touches paper still touches me the same way as when I met poetry
Even though sometimes I have to transfer it to digital to share with those who care
I still love inking on paper
I love expressing all different kinds of emotions and thoughts this way
And now I feel I should express how this way of expression makes me feel

Perfectly imperfect
I am constantly attempting away,
Away from the mentality of judgement of others
Acknowledging my own imperfections
Knowing there has never been a measure of perfection
But just the expression of our intellectuality
However, There has and always is a measure of imperfection
Yet, we rather shy away from reality
And label them failures and ours mistakes
Illusioning/illuding our own mentalities of judgement
The reality is,
There is a reason why we are all different
And that reason should not make any difference
Same as the reason we need many-different ingredients to make one final product
We are constantly consuming, with no comma
Not  giving a care if that will lead us to a comma,
Until our intensive-consumption puts us in a comma,
So intesively consumed by uniting as many commas as we can financially
Intesive hunger of desire, as if triggered by cannabis
Whilst some of us are led to the comma by lacking,
Some of us individually- consume- unconscioully until they cannibilise
No unity in sharing, is their conscious-digesestion
Intensive-care-unity ,  being the cure
To this our state of intesive-criticalness of carelessness
Illness being ignorance, consequence being illness
Of  the Mind, Body, Soul
This is three-dimensional, thats why we suffer third-degree injuries
If the odds are three-is-to-one, Mind, Body, Soul
When we intensively-care only about the 'one' out of the 'three'
Then what are the odds of success
Intensive-care-unity, of the trinity within
Will commission the commassaries of the unity without,
Is the first degree
As above as below, as within as without,
Is the first decree
Thought, Will, Action
Word, Sound, Power
Is the 'wheel' of creation
Let us create consciously for divinity
Dig-deep within to intensively-consume-unity
for dignity without
Our labours will be rewarded fruitfully
With these fruitful rewards shall our desires be filled with satisfaction

I think we are past the warming up stage
Things have heated up,
And going to the extremes
The cooking has begun and we still chopping down ingredients
If we dont stir down this heat we going into deep fry
Cooling off is for meta the dish is done
All this heat from the fires , we about to have coal for breakfast
All we doing is demonstrations,
And talking about demonstrations
While the globe is riding on a wave of heat sweatlessly
Using resources to budget for ourselves,
While we are economising on economies of scale for the planet

I been taking a jab in my mental,
About the jab that is being jabbed.
Being jabbed of the so-called cure, of the so-called pandemic.
Prevention is better than cure.
I guess,
The mental juggles,
How do we cure the cure ?
I ask,
Because we are not being jabbed with information about the cure,
Only the physical.
I guess,
The medical shuns the constitutional.
What is health to the laws of nature ?
What is our DNA nature to the future ?
We say we are thinking about the future.
I ask,
Are we really thinking about the future ?
I say,
Let us ask nature.
The very nature of our existance.
We cannot ask the future generation,
We can only think for them.
M (me)
P (pain)

M: Pain does hurt more than some times.

P : Dont blame me, i'm here to help.

M: Help ?!

P: No pain, no gain. Remember ?!
Hey, what dont **** you, makes you stronger.

M: Do you like, aim for the '****' , then settle for hurt ?

P: Lol. Case in point. There is humour in me.
You tell , brave stories of honour, through me. Pride.
What the hell ?! Careers have been established because of me. ******-analyse that. And take a chill-pill.

M: So you take 'pride' from / at what you do to people ?

P : Wouldnt you ? If you were achieving excelllence in what you were intended for, your mission.
By the way, people stop thinking you are the center of attention, by that i mean 'universe' .

M : whats your relation, relativeness (so to speak ), to / with time ? Now that you are here and all, i figured i should use this chance.

P : Pain and time, are siblings (if i may), are colleagues, 'in business together'  (if you like).
They are both in the 'same' mission but on 'different' missions .

M : And what is that mission ?

P : You will have to figure that out by yourself.

Make it your mission, if you like.

M: What is your cause ( course) , your purpose ?

P : I am because i am

M : What does that mean ?

P : Time will tell and lead you the answer to that.

M : Why do you have to be so elaborate and delibarate ?

P : For point of 'emphasis' .

Hey, you people are stubborn.
Besides, competition with my siblings is very stiff.

M : siblings ?!

P : Yeah siblings, love, joy, happiness, peace, and all, you know. Pride.
I dont have time for them all at once.

M : Yeah ?! But you are the bully.

P : its all in the mind. Matter of perspective.
Do i not arise from your judge-mentality ? Your judgementalism towards each other.
I mean, think about it.

M : Yes. Because of your trickery so as your ' will be done' .

P : Quite the contrary. I too, arise from cause and effect. It is ( i am) done by your will.
I am just, a 'guiding reminder' for and from decisions and actions.
Let me direct your angle from another perspective ;
I leave for closure and from closure comes healing and from healing the learning continues.

M : Do not get smarty clever with me.

P : Its the ignorance thats paining, really.

M : I am willing to ignore you, any time of day.

P : Try ignoring life and see what your life will be.

Besides, i could still come at night.
M : Its because of your dark ways, you lurking in the shadows.

P : Its because of you lacking to escape your shadows.
You should lighten up.

Ashes Dust
As i rise from the ashes,
I dust myself off the dust of the ashes
Although im the son of the soil
And so shall i return like the soil i am
My journey's wit trying not to wither away
I may trip and fall on this trip of ego
I have to still stand and proceed
This i have to do for my seed
Noone knows to what extent life is continuous
So arise the need to always be victorious
To an extent  have become vicious,
Although not to victimise victims
The vices i employ from advices hath maketh me devise malicious advances
Anticipating the day i will be flying high like birds of prey such as the Phoenix
Still i have to be patient as the Sphinx
Take time with every step to step out of the paradigms of pyramids and theorems
Pharaohs are my ancestry,
Dynasties is my accendence,
The world is my kingdom
My baptismal of fire has given me rite of passage to the throne
Lust, greed, evil, in my empire i do not condone
For like a mason i have built myself to be the temple of the creator.
By power of the creator,
By advocacy of ancestors,
By my discipline

Not being 'cause I have surpassed the mortality-rate (which keeps descending) nor being 'cause I have surpassed the morality-rate (which keeps descending)
Mere mortal I'm not, I'm not a mere mortal
People think it is only internal being 'cause they cannot see it on the external,
Animals can sense the aura being 'cause I have embraced the animal in man
Mere mortal I'm not, I'm not a mere mortal
Spirits even in the spiritual-realm recognise and respect my spiritual-powers granted by the Creator,
Ancestors endorse and annoint me
Mere mortal I'm not, I'm not a mere mortal
Baptised by fire, cleansed by water
My subconscious-breath is a whirl-wind in this earth
Mere mortal I'm not, I'm not a mere mortal
Not being 'cause I'm merely in the image of the Creator,
And not being 'cause I have imaginations
Mere mortal I'm not, I'm not a mere mortal
Not being 'cause of my ego,
Nor being 'cause I am a sage of ages
Mere mortal I'm not, I'm not a mere mortal
Being 'cause I will ascend from the mortal back to the eternal,
Merely just being 'cause I am just a mere god

Sleepless
Tossing and turning
Turning and tossing thoughts
Turning rest into work
Working on resting
But in an attempt to rest
I rest unsure
Will this be another late night
Will this be another sleepless night
Tonight is the night
I decide
Am I a difficult sleeper
Am I an insomniac
A restless thought
Why am I even fussing
Over sleep
I guess
I will have to turn to other
Alternatives
Like meditating
While im still contemplating
I know
I will sleep through my errands
Do I even wake up
If I never slept
While I'm awake
I contemplate
Do I need to sleep to rest

Fresh-start
I feel like i need a fresh-start,
The feeling i have with the present is worn-out,
So worn-out i need refreshments
Temptation has burned-me-out,
Focus torn-apart, that i have conflict of interest
New beginings, the pattern has become dull
I feel i cannot continue with(in) the present
I have been on this present-continuous that i have sweat(ed) even my tears
Contemplation has sped (speed) me down
I have sweat(ed) so much that i am stinking,
Stinking of regrets
Stinking of mistakes
Stinking of failures
Stinking of wisdom
I have (grown) out-grown my mother's womb
I am powerless (for) to reverse the hands of time
How do i start afresh? How do i begin anew?
I think i should start afresh by changing my way of thinking
Learn from my mistakes, so i can make better decisions and actions
Change my perspective in and of life, so as to feel brand-new
Why do i need to start afresh?
Do i perceive myself a failure?
Am i not satisfied with the outcomes of my decisions?
Do i even have a decision to make ?
Do i feel too heavy the burden of my responsibilities ?
Am i too ashamed ?
Whatever the reason , i believe a new begining will make me fresh with (new) energy,
If we are really particles of atoms, protons, neurons, etc of life
If time-travel was proved existing, would i want to keep my memories ?
Would changing everyone and everything help ?
Let me begin by rising above all the thoughts and emotions like a tide,
Wash them off-shore (like) with a wave of tsunami
(inspired by the catastrophic devasting natural disasters in Morocco and Libya )
My heart and prayers are with them

Erect
I stand ***** , having corrected my errors
Turned my misfortunes to fortunes of wisdom
Nobody is perfect, but it feels perfect when things come together as people
With my backbone straight, I have a better view of the future ( not to say the present is better than the past)
Positive anticipation has made an optimistic out of me ( in all spheres of life. Mentally, Metaphysically, Spiritually)
The content of the matter should be the angle of perspective (or is it the other way round?)
Fed by faith, drunk by belief
I ******* progressive actions, eking out
As things happen by being done
I still have my fair share of mistakes up my sleeve, as that's how we learn (but not the same sleeve I wear my heart )
Having the confidence to face the Creator, the world and it's people , makes all the difference
I may not be different but I'm indifference

Appellations
Im not in the study of appeasing appellations
Appeased by applauds
Im brainstorming this study
Typhoons of thought
Rains of memory
Winds of peace
Thunders of ideas
Snows of regret
This is not seasonal,
Just a continuous cycle

Post adaptation
Online posts ,
Not the post office
Emails,
Not the post office
Courier services at our door step,
Drones with deliveries,
New applications called "Apps"
Even put santa clause out of business
Not the post office
Ordering online with payments online
Paper trailing the postmaster office
With no cash injection
Why stand in line when you can checkout
Video calls and skype
Not one for the hype, office of the post
People are working from home,
Still battling with retrenchment and unemployment
Surviving debt-review and business-rescue and budget-cuts
This life also needs adjustments to adaptation,
Post occurances to befit currents
Like cold war office, post world war

Just Saying
Mean what you say,
What is said should be meant at the least
At most be truthful
So you dont feel minimal when saying it
But maximal
Without being mean
Yet meaningful
Even if thy saying be bitter ,
Thy taste of feeling shall be sweet

This is it
I am sure
Definately
This is it
I have liked hearts
I have liked minds
I have liked bodies
I have liked personalities
I know this is it
Not grammar
Not spelling
Wording of words
I love what they do
I love how they do
I love why they do
I love when the do
I even know who, Me
Either inhaling them
Either exhaling them
Wording of words
Poetry
Tales
Stories
History
Thesis
Conversations
Verses
Al­l I love
And that is it

God loves me, I love God
My family loves me, I love my family
My friends love me, I love my friends
Mother-Nature loves me , I love Mother-Nature
Maruana loves me, I love Maruana
I hate the fact that I disrespect that love with lust

(Weight)
I may be light in weight but I carry this heavy-weight on my shoulders
It's no-one else's responsibility but my own
So I own up to it and not call it a burden
This weight is to weigh my own strength and characteristics
So I should never let it weigh me down
And even learn to let go of unnecesity
As long as I live I grow stronger
To pain I am no stranger I am just not yet it's master
Even weight-lifting does not get rid of this weight off my shoulders
So I think through this experience and realize I have wisdom to gain
And also learnt to be a good sport
As I enjoy rugby than American-football
I acknowledge the ball is in my court
And so should have the ***** to court success (triumph and victory and conquer)
They say it's not over until the fat-lady sings
I have yet seen fat-ladies crossing marathon finishing-lines
Shoulders are between the head and the chest
So it's only natural that I find myself inbetween logic and emotion
Be the strength when I have none
Have nerves-of-steel during a nervous-breakdown
They say opposites attract and still am searching for the natural opposite of gravitational-force
And try to force it to elevate me to levitation
As this weight does not give me the leisure to wait
It's better bearable when I am in motion
Maybe it would be better if I weighed like a bear
Sometimes I cannot even bare hugs with aggression of intolerance
It's a lemon-flavoured honey taste to swallow
As sometimes I wish I was free as swallows
Even caged birds sing
To sing the freedom song you need to break-out of the cage
To break-out of the cage you need the wisdom of will and strength
And so a healthy mind needs a healthy body
As this weight also weighs emotionally and mentally
